Victorian Trade Card - CHICOREE EXTRA A LA BELLE JARDINIERE - C. BERIOT - Lille, France

Cute little card featuring a warmly dressed young blond girl, wearing a hat and muff, walking across what appears to be a rather rickety wooden footbridge in winter.

The back is covered with advertising (in French, of course) for the company's product.

Size: approx. 4-1/8" x 2-3/4"

Date: Not dated.

Lithographer: Not identified

Condition: Good to very good, I'd say. The front of this card is generally only lightly soiled, but there's a small bit of something stuck to it just above the railing of the bridge. There's also a small scrape in the bottom margin. The back has a moderate amount of glue staining and a closed surface tear. The edges and corners are just slightly worn. (Please see scans.)

MULTIPLE ITEM SHIPPING DISCOUNT: I will ship up to 4 cards for the single base shipping charge shown. For purchases of more than 4 cards, the shipping charge will increase by just a small increment for every 4 additional cards.
